Hard Core

She’s sweet, pure, and untouched, and she’s about to lose her innocence on camera. To me.

Trust me, I’m no porn star, even if I do have the equipment of one. But when the Moretti crime family comes calling to collect on a debt I owe, they want it in trade.

You see, there’s big money in dirty movies, and the more real, the better. Me? I’m already filthy, damaged goods from myShe’s sweet, pure, and untouched, and she’s about to lose her innocence on camera. To me.

Trust me, I’m no porn star, even if I do have the equipment of one. But when the Moretti crime family comes calling to collect on a debt I owe, they want it in trade.

You see, there’s big money in dirty movies, and the more real, the better. Me? I’m already filthy, damaged goods from my time in Afghanistan.

But then I meet Rose, my “co-star”, and my whole world shatters.

She owes the Moretti’s too, but she’s too good for all of this. Too sweet, too beautiful - too innocent for this shit. And I’ll be damned if I let them steal that away from her.

It’s wrong that she’s here, but it’s also wrong that she wants me to “teach her” things. It’s worse that I want to.

But one taste of her lips, and I’m hooked. One touch of her soft skin, and I know Rose is going to be mine. Not the camera’s. Mine.

The virgin with the debt, the ex-marine with the dick, and a porno for the mob.

Welcome to Vegas, baby.

*Please note that while a connected storyline, each of the Dirty Bad Things books are completely standalone stories centered around one couple, with no cliffhangers or spoilers.

Dirty, filthy, and oh-so-sweet, with an utterly obsessed alpha hero, explosive insta-love, and enough kindle-melting steam to make you sweat. Get ready to get wrong in the right kind of way. HEA with NO CHEATING!...more

Nico is opening a porn studio and wants Dylan and his 'horse cock' to be the star. Dylan takes one look at Rose the girl they have chosen as his co star and his a goner, where talking caveman possessive.

Rose is a virgin and finds herself in a similar situation to Dylan her mum's boyfriend worked for the Moretti family, he got killed while still owing the 'family' money. Now to pay his debt Rose has to lose her virginity on screen with Dylan. I could think of way worse than having to lose the V-card to the sexy as hell Dylan.

This was a quick, hot fun OTT insta- love book. I liked it for what it was and next time I need a smut fix I plan on checking out more of this author's work.

A virgin who has to pay her uncles debts, and a guy who supposedly lost his boss a bunch of money are made to do a porn video together. Of course they fall in love. Anyway. Good read if you have KU. It ends at like 30% percent and there sneak peeks and two other stories included.

In Vegas Dylan was to be looking after a large sum of money for the Moretti family mafia...but it gets stolen. Now Moretti is looking to get their money back from him via a porn movie.

Now Moretti is looking to get their money back from him via a porn movie. Moretti are starting up a Porn movie business and think Dylan would be a perfect Star in their movie. Rose too is now in debt to the Moretti family via her mom's boyfriend worked for the family too but now he has died leaving a outstanding debt. So Rose is to star in the porn also to pay off the debt to the family. But once Dylan lays eyes on Rose he turns instant alpha and in love. This was a really hot Read! One you won't be putting down for sure.

Hard Core is a dual POV from Dylan and Rose. They both have to deal with debts to the Moretti mafia family. Not what you're thinking because I honestly had no idea what they were going to do to pay back their debt. Spoiler alert: porn.

That's the only thing I'm going to spoil about this book because honestly that's not going to really spoil anything about this book. Yes, it has sex but some of it is all for this whole porno thing that the new guy in the mafia wants to do.

Cringing? You should be. Why? Because Rosie is the virgin in all of this paying for a debt that isn't hers. Dylan is paying for his own debt though. However, they are both thrown into this horrible situation.

Other than that, I really liked these two. They are both thrown into a horrible situation but they both find love. Unexpected love is the best, right?

Overall, I really liked this book. I mean what's not to like about Madison Faye writing a book or a new series of hers? I'm basically obsessed with her writing. Her smut. Her everything.

Yet another awesome series: Madison Faye outdoes herself repeatedly, and I am hooked.Just to give you an idea of how obsessed I am, I'll let you in on a little secret: as I'm writing this reviews, I still have 12 to write - because apparently I enjoy procrastinating way too much - and, out of those 12, 11 are of Madison Faye book.Yeah, you could say I've been on a binge of sorts, and I regret nothing.

This is book 1 in the series and each book can be read as a standalone and perhaps even out of order, but since I'm a neat-freak, I try to always read the series in its entirety and in order. This is Rose and Dylan's story and it was so good. It has everything; the entire series does: it's hot, and sexy, and sweet and heart melting...And I love that Madison always sorta gives us a glimpse of the others characters and a little taste of the stories to come; I couldn't wait to get my hands on the next one fast enough.

If you haven't read Madison Faye yet, you're missing out.Give it a try. I can almost guarantee you'll love every second of it....more

this is THE FIRST time in my very colorful reading life that I have read a trope like this!

Fkn amazing!

I mean.. Come on!

Rose is stuck for a debt that was thrown on her to be paid back and Dylan actually owes a lot!

So what happens when they both owe it to the same Sonofabitch??

He stars them in a porn!

But trust me.. This is soooo good. I ate this up faster than anything. I am the biggest insta smut fan but anything involving more than two people is a huge RED NO for me Okay, here's the thing..

Although I liked this book, it wasn't "great". I loved the premise, I truly did love Dylan and Rose. I am not sure what was "missing" exactly but it didn;t give me the butterfly feeling that I have had with other books from this author.

Holy hot blazing inferno I think “Hard Core” just gave me heatstroke… or maybe I’m just still blushing… Wow, that was ENORMOUSLY entertaining and should come with a warning label… WARNING: Please use extreme caution while reading in public… or private!

“Hard Core” is an extremely fast paced (deliciously dirty) professionally written (filthy) novella featuring one lickable… ahem, I mean… likeable hero and one sweet, innocent virgin. The lead character’s find themselves thrust (pun intended) into a totally unexpected situation by members of the Moretti crime family. Action packed (yeah, that kind of action) Dylan teaches Rose everything she needs to know about making it BIG (pun intended) in Vegas. First in a brand-new series “Hard Core” is a standalone novella filled with insta-lust/love, no dreaded cliffhanger and one sugary sweet HEA.

One more thing… Dylan has this incredible attribute… his (CENSORED) is truly ENORMOUS! Uh, oh… I think I was just censored… I guess if you really want to find out what’s so incredible you’ll just have to read “Hard Core”!

Hot core, more like it :-D Las Vegas, a twistedly fun and naughty plot, a big endowed ex-Marine, and an innocent young woman all mix to create a really good smut romance.

I don't know if she read my mind, but this author has improved one aspect I missed in some of her stories. This time, the main characters do a lot more dialogue and connection than usual, and adding that to other scenes with more characters and plot development, really made a good impact on the overall sensation.

I love smut romance and insta-love, but enriching it always pays off. This still has a crazy plot which I relished, and lots of steamy times. You won't believe how insanely sweet and scorching-hot they can be at the same time.

It was so much fun to see the characters meet for the first time when they are being dragged to shooting a porn film against their wills, and then completely melt for each other. The author manages to keep the tone light while maintaining the double edge of the provocative side of their situation but still give them romance enough to make an emotional connection. And it was so great to see the hints for the oncoming couples in the series. A fantastic start, I loved this story!...more

"He moves even closer, and when his hand slides up my arm, I shiver. His fingers push through my hair, brushing it from my face as he moves a mere few inches away from me. The hand cups my jaw, and when I feel the power and possessiveness of that touch, something ignites inside of me."

I absolutely look forward to everything Madison Faye writes! Hard Core is all packed with dirty bad things and they'll keep you craving so much more from this series.

I absolutely look forward to everything Madison Faye writes! Hard Core is all packed with dirty bad things and they'll keep you craving so much more from this series. When Rose's "Uncle Vinny" gets killed, Nico Moretti already has someone to blame. He takes Rose as payback for a debt that Vinny owed, and he takes Dylan hostage to pay back a murder he committed. But when both Rose and Dylan find out what their destiny will be, they can only trust each other to get out of the mess they're in. Their attraction is palpable and Dylan is such an obsessively sweet alpha, you just root for him at every turn. Erotic sex filled scenes, sweet innocence, and hardcore action take over Madison Faye's new series. I can't wait for Gray and Roman's stories!...more

I knew I'd regret this but I'm such a sucker for a sexy cover. It was immediately just way too excessive. Upon seeing that she has the wholesome girl next door looks he immediately deems her an angel and then he uses it so often that by the time I quit in chapter six I never wanted to see the word again.

There's a lot of really bothersome hate at the beginning too. Like I personally wouldn't do porn but it's fucked up to talk about sex workers the way this author spent a lot of time doing. Heroine seems to lie to him to get him to agree to do it. The whole thing was a dumpster fire and I wanted no part of it. Dnf @30%...more

Hard Core was a fast paced insta love erotic story. It isn’t very long but while there is a lot going on you aren’t left with the feeling that anything was missing. It was sexy, it was hot but at the same time I wanted more. Yes sort of contradictory but not that is was lacking I just wanted more of the story between Dylan and Rose.

I am going to keep this review short and sweet because I don’t want to give anything away. I will say that Ms. Faye has me very interested in reading more of this series.

Oh Madison... you might be new to me and I've only read a couple things by you but holy smokes did you set my panties on fire and completely stole my heart.

This is a fast-paced read that is off the charts hot. Rose and Dylan both owe the Moretti crime family and they plan on getting their payment by making a dirty movie. Can Dylan protect sweet and innocent Rose? I liked the story and the chemistry is steamy. A good read, looking forward to more in the series.

Cheesy and juvenile and predictable storyline just like other authors are trotting out at the minute does anyone have an original idea anymore glad it was on ku so I didn't waste my money. Sorry didn't like .

Quick smutty read by Madison Faye. Dylan and Rose's love definitely doesn't start the way we anticipate it, but it ends beautifully. From the sexy smut, to the plot and romance, this short read was a good start to the series.

Spoiler*****************************************I thought she was going to lose her V card while filming! Lol so I was kind of disappointed with all that build up and of course it didn't happen!. Please break the rules a little bit and out with being the goodie two shoe! I always see the same sort of storylines with the heroine and the hero. I need something that doesn't follow rules for once!. Have blurred lines...be more wild please!

Nico has decided that in order to recoup the lost money, Dylan is going to have to make a porno film for them since he has a big d#$k. Dylan's not real sure he wants to do this but he feels it's better than dying. That is until he meets his co-star, Rose. They have her dressed like a hooker, but she exudes an innocence and softness that don't match up to her being a porn star. Rose is a virgin and unfortunately for her, her mother has awful taste in men. Her mom overdosed on drugs two years ago and she's been having to live with Vinny, her mother's last boyfriend while trying to save enough money to get out of there. When Vinny is killed he still owed a lot of money to his Mafia boss and they believe that she must take on the responsibility of paying back the debt. Nico decides since she's a virgin he is going to film Dylan taking Rose's virginity and sell the film to make the money Vinny owes them back. Dylan doesn't believe Rose deserves having her first time filmed and he wants to help her escape, but she's worried they'll go after her sister if she escapes. Grab this book today because it's hot, steamy and has some yummy insta-love which makes doing the right thing really hard for Dylan. It is definitely a book I would recommend....more

The bass wants to start a new porn business and Dylan has one big asset. If Dylan does this movie, he won't be killed. Then Dylan gets introduced to his co-star Rose. Rose is an innocent beauty and Dylan immediately falls for her. He learns that it is his job to take her v-card on film. He is horrified for her and wants to help her escape. Rose is in a rough place. Her mother lived with a mafia man named Vinnie who died in the robbery. Since he was Rose's "uncle" she was to be held responsible for his debt even though she hated him and he was no real relation. If she doesn't agree to make a movie of her losing her v-card, then her older sister will be hurt. Rose goes along with the horrible scenario until she meets her co-star Dylan. Dylan is a hot but considerate man who really gets her wet. Maybe losing it to him will even be enjoyable. This is a great insta-love story with tender emotions and hot encounters.

Hard Core is the first novella in the Dirty Bad Things Series. All novellas can be read as standalones. This is the story of Dylan and Rose.

Blurb: Dylan and Rose end up in a troubling situation with the Moretti crime family. Both are having to repay the family for things beyond their control. The family wants repayment by making a porn. Only problem, Rose is a virgin and Dylan is too much of a gentleman to take her innocence on camera. If it doesn't happen they both could end up dead.

This was a fantastic novella. An insta-love with some darkness and mafia. Can't beat it. There was so much action and drama throughout with some secrets that it kept me on the edge of my seat. Dylan was so protective of Rose. Always defending her and being gentle. Rose was extremely brave and making sure no one else ends up having to pay the debts she is responsible for.

All in all, I would recommend this if you like a good romance that involves a mafia. It is on the darker side, but that just makes it more interesting.

I thought this would be better but unfortunately didn’t meet my expectations.

I did find it interesting though to pay their debt they wanted Dylan and Rose to make a porno flick, him with his huge dick her with her virginity sounds good right?
